• Develop AI‑enabled workflow automation capabilities to improve operational efficiency and decision‑making.
• Design and manage integrations with healthcare, billing, claims, payment, and data systems.
• Establish engineering best practices, development processes, and technical standards.
• Recruit, mentor, and lead an early‑stage engineering team.
• Collaborate closely with executive leadership, investors, advisors, customers, and strategic partners.
• Drive product delivery from MVP through commercialization and scale.

Qualifications Required

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 10+ years of software engineering and technology leadership experience.
• Proven experience building products from concept through launch.
• Strong software architecture and system design expertise.
• Hands‑on coding and technical execution capabilities.
• Experience leading engineering teams and managing technical roadmaps.
• Strong understanding of cloud infrastructure, APIs, integrations, and scalable application development.
• Experience working in startup, high‑growth, or rapidly evolving environments.
• Ability to operate effectively in ambiguous situations and make decisions with limited information.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills.

Preferred

• Previous founder, CTO, or early technical leadership experience.
• Experience developing AI, machine learning, automation, or intelligent workflow products.
• Background in healthcare technology, healthcare infrastructure, healthcare operations, or regulated environments.
• Experience with payments, financial technology, transaction processing, or workflow automation platforms.
• Knowledge of healthcare revenue cycle management, claims processing, reimbursement workflows, denials management, or payment reconciliation.
• Experience building enterprise SaaS products and data‑intensive applications.
• Familiarity with healthcare data integration and interoperability standards.
